Title: Switching arrangement for telephone station
Inventor: PIERREL HANS-JOACHIM
IPC: H04M19/00
Filed: 1984-09-18
Granted: 1985-09-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit for a telephone station which is mains-supplied or remote-powered as required, i.e. in the event of a mains failure an automatic switchover from the mains voltage to remote power takes place, and a switchover in the opposite direction takes place when power is restored. This is effected without any additional voltage insulation and without substantial additional expense. This is achieved in that a switching regulator which establishes the actual feed voltage is connected to the mains DC voltage, where a blocking voltage for a transistor located in the remote feed unit is obtained from the mains DC voltage. If the mains fails, the blocking voltage for the transistor is also lost and the latter is switched through by the remote feed voltage which acts upon its base. This procedure is automatically reversed when the main voltage again becomes available.

Title: Pcm data sequence level control
Inventor: JENSEN PETER-GRAUER
IPC: H03G3/20
Filed: 1986-02-28
Granted: 1987-04-16
Abstract: Voice information are converted into pulse code modulated data sequences which, after a further processing, can likewise be deposited in a memory for a specific subscriber. This subscriber can then fetch the information from the memory at any desired time. Given an attenuation of the analog voice signals on the transmission path, a regulation is undertaken in such a manner, given a downward transgression of a mean voice level, that the digital pulse code modulated data sequence is correspondingly modified in its values thus represented, being modified on the basis of a gain factor which can be read from a table. The drive information for the stored table are supplied by a peak value memory which is, in turn, charged with the output signals of an averaging filter. This method therefore provides that the influence of an attenuation of the analog voice signals existing on the transmission path is significantly limited.

Title: Process for improving thermal stability of synthetic lubes
IPC: B01J31/10
Filed: 1990-08-31
Granted: 1993-03-04
Abstract: A process is disclosed for improving the thermal stability of polyalpha-olefin lubricants by contacting the lubricant with an acidic catalyst for a time and at a temperature sufficient to achieve the skeletal isomerization of the molecular structure of the lubricant. The reaction is carried out preferably on unhydrogenated synthetic lubricants in contact with Lewis acid catalysts. Following the isomerization reaction, the unsaturated lubricant is hydrogenated to produce lubricant with better thermal stability. Surprisingly, when the isomerization reaction is carried out using unsaturated oligomer produced from the oligomerization of alpha-olefins in contact with reduced Group VIB metal oxide catalyst on porous support as starting material the viscometric properties of the lubricant, e.g., viscosity and VI, are not significantly altered, although the thermal stability of the lubricant is substantially increased. The reaction of the present invention may be carried out neat or in the presence of a solvent. Improvements in thermal stability are observed over a wide range of catalyst concentrations. Concentrations of about 10 weight percent are preferred with aluminum chloride catalyst.
